The customs in this area of Guanshan, the time of eating on the thirtieth day, is different from usual.

Breakfast did not change, lunch and dinner were combined into one meal, eaten at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and the third meal was after eleven o'clock in the evening, which was the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

After eating Chinese New Year's Eve, firecrackers were set off, and after twelve o'clock, the old people couldn't stand it and went to sleep. The younger ones gather together to play mahjong, play cards, often play until dawn, and then eat the first dumplings of the new year, and go to various places to pay New Year's greetings.

At two o'clock, Li Hucheng returned home, and after about ten minutes, he began to eat.

He Qiaoyun and Li Li didn't cook too many dishes, and there were four people in the family, so they couldn't eat much at one meal, so they bought a bunch of things, and they didn't need to cook too much every day in the future.

A stewed meat, which is a traditional dish, is the case in every family.

The half-fat and half-lean meat is cooked first, then steamed in a pot, steamed out of the oil, and then stewed in the pot.

In the end, the stew is sloppy, melts in the mouth, fat but not greasy.

One brine prawn, one braised saury, chicken stewed mushrooms, one beef stew, one fried cocoon pupa, one appetizing canned hawthorn.

He Qiaoyun and Li Li drank Cordon Bleu beer, and Li Yonghe drank the Moutai that Li Hucheng bought for him.

Li Hucheng drank the Wang family small roast himself, which was given to him by Wang Liguo this morning, saying that it was an old wine that had been cellared for more than ten years.

Li Hucheng drank it and felt that this Wang family's small roast was smoother than Moutai.

In Li Hucheng's view, wine is actually the same, no matter what brand it is, it is actually alcohol, but the difference is the taste.

The taste can be blended and adjusted, with additives such as different spices.

As for saying that wine is highly nutritious, he never believed this nonsense.

Wine, to put it bluntly, is alcohol and water, where there will be any nutrition.

As for microorganisms or something, whether they are beneficial to people's health or not, the devil knows.

The same goes for smoke. It is tobacco with flavor or something, tar, nicotine, whether it is ordinary tobacco or famous tobacco, the difference is only the different quality and taste of tobacco leaves.

Smoking famous cigarettes is just an outward manifestation of status and wealth and the release of vanity.

"Hucheng, don't drink too much, you have to go to the ancient city at ten o'clock to bring my brothers and sisters back for the New Year. ”

Li Yonghe was drinking Moutai at home, and he hadn't forgotten his brothers.

"Dad, you don't care, I'll tell the pony to drive to pick them up. ”

"It doesn't matter, at this time in previous years, our brothers were all together. I became a deserter this year and felt a little embarrassed. ”

"Dad, you really feel embarrassed, so ask Hucheng to drive you over and celebrate the New Year with them. ”

Li Li said.

"That's not good, it's not a taste. ”

"You still know that it's not a taste, you can spend the New Year at home this year, you have to thank Hucheng. Otherwise, I'm still hiding outside at this time. ”

He Qiaoyun said with a smile.

"So I'm happy, drinking Moutai, smoking Hongta Mountain, debt-free and light. The family has money, and I am still the village head, and I am happy to live to my part in this life. ”

"Yo yo yo, look at your little talent, you will be happy as a village chief, and you are not an official at all. ”

"Dad, this is called contentment. ”

The family talked and laughed, and they didn't drink hard, they just drank at will, and they finished eating in an hour. 、

Pack up and start making dumplings.

was wrapping dumplings, and I heard a child's cry, and He Ping came with Yuanyuan in his arms.

"What's going on, it's the New Year. He Ping, did you hit the child?"

He Qiaoyun asked

"I didn't fight, I can't live this year. I fought with Yang Xiaomei just now. ”

He Ping gasped for breath.

"Quickly put Yuanyuan down, He Ping, you also sit down, what's going on, say slowly. ”

It turned out that Li Hushan and Yang Xiaomei returned to Li Huwei's house with their children for the New Year this year, and He Ping was originally unhappy, but because of the situation, it was not easy to push out, so she had to accept it hard.

Just now, Li Hushan's children were playing with Yuanyuan, and in order to grab the toys, the two children fought.

When the children are together, it will be sunny for a while, cloudy for a while, just after playing, and it will be fine for a while. Adults don't have to worry about them too much.

But Yang Xiaomei felt that her child had suffered a loss, so she slapped Yuan Yuan twice.

After all, it's a child, but I didn't hit it hard, I just wanted to scare Yuanyuan.

He Ping was already angry in her heart, and saw that Yang Xiaomei did not teach her children a lesson, but played round. The fire in her heart couldn't be held back any longer, so she scolded Yang Xiaomei.

That Yang Xiaomei was also unwilling to suffer, so she scolded her. The words were in a hurry, and the more the two scolded, the more unpleasant they became, so they started fighting.

It took a lot of effort for brothers Li Hushan and Li Huwei to pull the two apart.

"A family of three came to celebrate the New Year, and when they came empty-handed, they brought three mouths, and even the snacks of his children were bought by me. ”

"Okay, I won't pick this, Li Hushan is not willing to do it now, for Li Huwei's sake, I admit it. That Yang Xiaomei, what kind of eldest lady did she pretend to be here. I'm cooking here, I'm busy to death, and she's watching TV there, and Yuanyuan can't watch cartoons even if she wants to. ”

"And that Li Hushan, just muttering with Zhao Cuntan in the yard, I don't know what conspiracies and tricks to do, as soon as I go out, the two of them won't talk about it. As soon as I got back into the house, the two of them muttered again. ”

"The two of them are a pair of pus, a bad stomach, maybe they are calculating someone together. ”

"Second sister-in-law, Zhao Cuntan is also back for the New Year?"

Li Hucheng asked.

"The family is back, and they are celebrating the New Year at Zhao Cundong's house. He was the director of the credit union, and he came back in a taxi with a lot of big bags and small bags. Zhao Cundong's wife is happy. ”

As soon as he heard Li Hushan and Zhao Cuntan muttering together, Li Hucheng became vigilant.

These two bad seeds have been manipulating me again and again behind my back, probably planning how to deal with me.

You two turtle calves are trying to clean you up.

"I can't get through this year, Hucheng, you drive back to me and Yuanyuan back to my parents' house. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, you're in your thirties, what's the matter with you going back to your parents' house? Your parents and your parents are not having a good time. ”

He Qiaoyun persuaded.

"Yes, He Ping, you're gone, what should Huwei do?"

Li Yonghe said.

"Second sister-in-law, your own home, why are you leaving? If we don't leave, tell them to go, I'll go with you and drive them back, it's a big deal to ask Hucheng to send them back." ”

Li Li has a hot temper, so she has to go down to the ground and put on her shoes.

"You stupid girl, don't follow the hook, sit down and make dumplings. He Ping, you dissipate your anger, let's talk about it later. ”

"Third aunt, I really can't swallow this breath. ”

He Ping was so aggrieved that she cried.

When she cried, she was so frightened that Yuanyuan also cried.

"Look at you, don't cry, scare the child. Tiger City, you drive with Yuanyuan to play. ”

He Qiaoyun ordered.

"Okay, don't cry, Yuanyuan, the third uncle will bring you something delicious. By the way, my uncle will give you money and take you out in the car. ”

Li Hucheng opened the bag and took out a red envelope to open it.

"Look at Yuanyuan, how much is this?"

"Fifty. ”

"Give you the red envelopes for the New Year, put them away,. The third uncle drove you out to play. ”

Yuanyuan didn't cry when he got the money, Li Hucheng took the little girl out, put her in the front seat, then turned on the car lights, drove out of the yard, and drove slowly in the direction of Tongyang Town.
